Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone had a really good day yesterday <3 I had a bit of a recoup day. A day I spent relaxing, by myself while doing things that made me happy. I think in general we all need a good recoup day from time to time. 
When I woke up yesterday I wasn't feeling well, I had a very bad migraine. I suffer from chronic migraines. I take a medicine for it. I realized I had forgotten to take my medicine before I went to sleep which is why my head didn't like me so much when I woke up. So I took my medicine along with some ibuprofen and within a couple of hours my migraine became tolerable. 
Yesterday when I woke up once my migraine was under control I found myself in a really good mood. I felt positive and optomistic about my future. A lot of my recent depression and anxiety didn't seem to be affecting me at the moment. It was a really good feeling, I enjoyed not feeling like my world was about to collapse for once. 
I still have a lot going on in life, but I mentally felt much stronger in my ability to take it all on. 
I went through with my morning routine, made myself some breakfast. Sadly during me cooking when I woke up I burnt myself. I now have a second degree burn on my finger. After a few hours ago the pain wasn't as bad. It's began to bubble, but I'm taking proper care of it. A little hiccup but I wasn't going to let it affect my day. 
My Dad got home from work around 2am, he had a really long hard day at work. He was exhausted. Sometimes we watch shows when he gets home from work before he goes to bed. But yesterday he was too tired to even stay awake. I really feel for my Dad. He works so hard! I'm very proud of him and I appreciate all that he does for me and our family. So I gave him a really big hug, my Dad gives the worlds best hugs by the way and told him to go get some rest. 
I was in the Christmas spirit you could say, so while I did my morning routine and what available work there was at 2am on Mechanical Turk I listened to holiday music. It really brightened my spirits. To the point where I finally got up, unpacked my new lights and began decorating my little Christmas Tree. It's absolutely beautiful. It brings a light into my darkness. Makes me feel light and joyful. Luckily expensive kitty here isn't into destroying Christmas Trees. So she's left it alone, we sit and enjoy it together. 
Dammie then woke up, we were sending each other tiktoks, talking about dreams and goals of ours. For ourselves as well as our relationship. I really enjoy having my partner to dream with. 
I spent my morning and afternoon talking with Dammie, doing some side hustle work and looking into fashion. I have a very unique style. I haven't been able to express it to the full extent that I wish. But hopefully soon I will be able to get my wardrobe back. But I enjoyed looking into pieces, planning how they'd go together. Accessories etc. It's a personal hobby of mine that I enjoy. Well one of them, I'm one who has many unique hobbies that you wouldn't typically think go together. 
After a nap I woke up to feed the dogs their breakfast and let them outside to go potty. I got ready to then go for a walk. I called my Mom to check in on her and my Grandma Rosemary. What I got was actually very good news!
My Grandma Rosemary's sepsis was gone. They had managed to cure the infection in her blood. Due to them being able to do so she was now able to talk again and actually feed herself again! She can now use her walker to get herself up and walk around a bit where she wasn't able to do so before. My Mom would have to put her in a wheelchair. My Grandma's condition has improved quite a bit! Which made me so happy to hear. She was on her way home from the hospital when I called. 
Hearing about my Grandma Rosemary really brightened my day. I had the biggest smile on my face I nearly wanted to cry. I know what my Grandma has is permanent and there is no cure sadly. I honestly don't know how much longer my Grandma has. But with the sepsis my Grandma had a day or two if the doctors couldn't cure it. With my Grandma's failing organs it made it difficult for the doctors which is what made her condition touch and go for the first night. Luckily, the amazing doctors and nurses were able to save my Grandma from the sepsis. She's now improved so much!! 
She's asleep right now as I write this, but I plan on giving my Grandma a call in the morning. I'd like to hear her beautiful voice that I miss oh so very much <3
On my walk I went downtown and took a look at the Christmas lights again. All the shops had beautiful decor out, it really cheered me up. I went and got my smoothie I handed them my card when they informed me that on my electronic punch card with the coffee shop I had a free drink. So that was a nice little bonus. I didn't have to pay for my smoothie that morning. 
Walked home, let the dogs in and gave the kitty some more food. She didn't stop reminding me she was hungry. Her favorite food is the Tiny Tasters from Wellness. She loves those things! So if you're looking for a healthy cat food that's expensive kitty approved the Tiny Tasters is where it's at. 
I got an email from work, saying they'd like to bring me in for my interview sometime next week to close off the investigation. So hopefully that means this will all be over soon. I will hopefully soon be back at work doing what I love. Helping people and making a difference in my community. 
Went and watched a little TV with my Dad. He's obsessed with this new bar show with Blake Shelton lol. My Dad's a weirdo. I told him about work. We're both hoping for the best. 
I then did a little bit more work on Mechanical Turk before I laid down scrolling through tumblr while I talked to Dammie before I went to bed. Overall it was a pretty simple day. But some good news came out of today. 
If I give any advice today it would be to take time out of your day today to call a loved one and tell them that you love them. You never know how long you'll have with them. 
I hope today you all have a beautiful day. Take care of yourselves and the ones you love. Do something nice for yourself, because you deserve it. Remember to call someone you love. Family or friend. Know you're so loved <3
